Master Programme<br />
In the MHA programme you won‟t necessarily go down the traditional path. We know that you are at a<br />
turning point in your life and we are offering you a journey of intensive discovery. What we try to do is<br />
give you the range: you will explore areas that you might not be naturally drawn to. Probably not one<br />
of our stu<strong>de</strong>nts would have thought of revenue management as an exciting subject or would have<br />
chosen it. Yet for some it has been a <strong>de</strong>cisive and extraordinary career choice.<br />
What we do is float possibilities past you. We don‟t try to evaluate you too early or push you into one<br />
direction or another. And at one point a light comes on.<br />
The range of backgrounds and cultures represented among Master's stu<strong>de</strong>nts is always varied,<br />
which makes for stimulating interaction and exchange.<br />
Different life experiences have allowed each stu<strong>de</strong>nt to <strong>de</strong>velop an individual set of personal and<br />
professional competencies. We combine these with others to create an unusual new profile that<br />
opens up unique career opportunities.<br />
Because backgrounds vary, the perspective for the future will also vary. Some stu<strong>de</strong>nts, perhaps<br />
career climbers, will be focused on a specific hospitality or entrepreneurial area; others, like career<br />
changers, will be exploring the breadth of options in the hospitality sector. The programme is the<br />
common catalyst to help each of them <strong>de</strong>velops the skills, hard and soft, which they need for the next<br />
professional step.<br />
